Okay, so my cat looks at me while I'm in bed. He comes up to the side of my bed, and stares at me like he's asking to come up onto the bed. But he's really fat so I have to pick him up and put him on the bed, but when I do he jumps right down and walks away. Then a few minutes later he'll come back to the side of my bed and stare at me again.

Jewel carries ouchless hair bands around the house and meows. She drops them for me as presents, but when I pick them up she looks at me as if I've shot the pope until I put them back down. She'll take the hair band and hide it under the scale in my bathroom.



Casper thinks he's got the slight of paw thing down pat. He'll jump up when people are eating and try to lay down next to them. When they turn to look at him or try to move him, he'll swipe a paw out lightening quick and try to grab a piece of food.



Tink will only eat one brand of food in two flavors. The odd thing is that it has to be from a 5.5 ounce can. If I try to give her the same food in the same flavor from a large can she'll turn her nose up and meow like I haven't fed her for a week. She won't touch the stuff. I thought it was a fluke at first, but I've tested it several times and her reaction is always the same.



Frank paces and stares while I'm on the toilet. He'll continue doing it until I pick him up. Any other time he'll jump in my lap without help.



Henry breaks into cabinets and can get into most any container to get to catnip. He spills it all over the kitchen floor and rolls in it. When I get out the catnip and offer it he acts indifferent most of the time.



Thomas routinely stalks invisible things on the walls. He'll just randomly jump about half way up the wall trying to get *whatever*.



That's just one quirk for each cat. I could probably fill a couple of pages if I kept going.

If my cat and I are walking upstairs together from the basement, it seems like if I'm not walking fast enough he will bite my ankles. He gets soo mad when I stand at the top of the stairs with the door closed and I just stare at him.



He lays on my lap when I'm going to the bathroom.



He will also stick his paw in any cup or bowl sitting anywhere in the house. I used to use just have like cereal bowls for my cats but then I started noticing the water was spilled out of them and I caught my cat sticking his paw in the bowl knocking the bowl upside down, water everywhere.



He's spoiled he just helps himself to anything.

I hate it when cats do that staring contest thing. One of my cats has a ritual where he does sort of a little dance around his food bowl after I fill it up like he's covering it with some little invisible blanket. I read where that means that he's trying to hide it from the other cat in the house. Cats are neat. Take care. :-)

My cat loves razors (merely the primary shave your leg type) for some reason. this is adverse because of the fact if I ever depart one out she'll grab it and run off with it. It has the teeth marks on it from the place she bit the metallic (that's whilst i found out that I would desire to be very careful to maintain them faraway from her!). yet sooner or later in college my sister despatched me a text textile of my cat dozing on the floor jointly as retaining onto a razor she got here across (my sister's caption become "Wake me up and that i will decrease you!". My cat additionally drools. this is somewhat disgusting. whilst she is particularly happy and purring she'll merely have slobber going everywhere. She comes working as quickly as I whistle for her. I swear she's area canine.

My cat Marley is crazy.... She hides behind things or under them and as soon as someone walks by she jumps out chasing and attacking you. Lol it's pretty funny and my other cat Chloe sleeps under the covers at my feet

He likes to eat things that don't make a lot of sense, like cranberry juice, lollypops, and fake turkey.



If dresser drawers aren't closed properly he sits and stares and whines at them.



He runs from one side of the apartment to the other, full speed and chattering.



He tries to bury his food AND mine, like he'll save it for later.



Sometimes he lifts his hind leg and he doesn't notice it. I mean, he lifts his leg like he's going to clean himself, and he doesn't seem to realize his leg is up until it brushes against his ear. Then he looks annoyed and proceeds to fight with his own leg.

kappa- he believes he's a human and the leader of my cats so he will only eat sitting at the table, like sitting in a chair with cat food in front of him and then he eats, no paws on the table ever. if i'm watching tv he'll sit next to me and watch to! the weirdest thing he does is sleep in my sock drawer.



Dudley- my little brother made a house out of cardboard boxes and he sleeps on top of it. will fall asleep watching jessica the hippo on animal planet, every time i watch it he fall asleep. if i sleep on my back he'll sleep on my chest lol ( he thinks boobs are pillows! lol!) and he will be a jerk when you give him cat nip.



Kitten (that's his actual name)- he barks, and hangs out with my yorkie and basset hound but beats up my dog with large ears that i can't spell her type i think it's spelled chuwawa lol nope. and he won't sleep on anything but the couch and the stairs.

One of my cats will go to sleep on command. And another carries around a blue sock and yowls at 2am every morning.

At 7 in the morning if I don't wake up he will walk all over me. Then if i put him in the floor, he jumps right back up and puts his butt in my face
